In yellow letters over a field of orange and yellow flowers: “R.O.O.T.S. Permaculture Design Certification Course”. At the top of the page a 2-D drawing of two afro-indigenous women dressed in all white face each on opposite sides of a tree that displays yellow vertical letter “R.O.O.T.S.”. They stand above the tree’s roots while balancing a basket filled with crops on their heads and holding a hoe (in the right hand of the woman on the left) and a rake (in the left hand of the woman on the right).

ROOTS is a one of a kind Permaculture Design Course (PDC) for people of color, exploring the indigenous origins of permaculture concepts taught from culturally relevant perspectives from a diverse group of people. We create space for understanding our roles as stewards and reclaiming empowerment through holistic design methods. Our goal is to deliver knowledge and an experience that facilitates connected oneness with Mother Earth and healing for our collective spirit.

Go support this California-based BIPOC-led permaculture design course for BIPOC learners to understand the indigenous origins of permaculture. Next cohort is April 2025
